All I do is
cvs up
make -f Makefile.cvs && ./configure && make
What I have noticed is that yesterday I had a complaint about xm/X ...
(something can't remember) missing and had to install the lesstiff-dev
package. So double check that libpng and libjpeg etc and their -dev
equivalents are installed. Are you building kde with the qt-copy thats in the
package, or have you got a libqtx-dev and libqtx installed (where x should
=3) [I'm using the qt-copy and have set QTDIR to point to it.
Can't think of anything else is special (other than making sure
/usr/local/kde/bin is in the path and KDEDIR is set to this during build and
I editied inittab to run /usr/local/kde/bin/kdm from there under run level 5
and so changed the run level to that. I had to spend a bit of time mucking
about with the /etc/ files (in the end I created /etc/kde3 as a copy from
/etc/kde2, edit the files in /etc/kde3/kdm to ensure that had the right paths
etc in and then created a symlink at /usr/local/kde/etc to point at the
/etc/kde3 directory)
